Sorry, I wasn’t logged in last time.. the actual file size is:

-rw-r–r– 1 — — 68957934592 Aug 28 18:40 p9.0.dmg

Permissions, ownership, content are the same as this one (only difference is bzipping):

-rw-r–r– 1 hmdcmacs hmdcmacs 45760869215 Aug 27 07:25 p9.1.dmg

file says:

p9.0.dmg: Apple Partition data block size: 512, first type: Apple_partition_map, name: Apple, number of blocks: 63, second type: Apple_HFS, name: disk image, number of blocks: 134683392,

So it should be vaild.. it’s just REALLY big 😛

I am getting the same error. The image is a 65GB PowerMac image made with an hdiutil command line to an AFP mounted folder on the Xserve. There is no RAID configuration on the Xserve. It appears that the image is too big? And someone’s error-writing spell check seems to be off here, as that first image creation sentence makes no sense:

“hdiutil: create: -size/-sectors/-megabytes cannot be bigger that -strech.”

Is there a size limitation? This works fine with the same image created with the UDBZ option as a format (bzip compressed). This is the first (and only) place I’ve seen this particular error message besides the server here…
